Brian becomes uncomfortable and leaves. Angela returns to work at the hospital part-time to give her more of a purpose, and Katie watches Cora. Katie uses her free time in the house to go snoop through Angela and Brian's belongings, envious of their family. Angela comes home after work one day and catches Katie having sex in the guest house with whom she thinks is Brian, but is actually a woman (later revealed to be Linda). After the initial embarrassment, Angela relaxes somewhat and trusts Katie more, not believing she would ever have any interest in Brian. Linda excitedly tells Katie that Angela is going to ask Linda to be their surrogate, but Katie can barely hide how it upsets her. Apparently Angela has one embryo left from the same donor that Cora was conceived from, and she wants to use that so the two can be full siblings. Katie confides to Linda that she is the donor, and that her daughter Maddie was also hers but born from a mother in Maine. Katie abducted Maddie as a baby because "the mother didn't take care of her" and now she worries that Cora is not getting enough attention either and wants to take her. She drowns Linda in a lake, and a couple later finds her body. A couple months later, Angela and Brian tell Katie they are getting a full-time nanny, and Katie angrily accuses them of wanting a complete stranger to raise their child. Brian defends her and says she just has different beliefs than them. It becomes clear that Angela and Brian are not as happy any more. Angela suspects Katie is planning to keep the baby and disappear, and accuses her of killing Linda because she wanted it for herself. Katie fakes early labor pains. Brian is furious with Angela and thinks she is taking meds and losing her mind. The next morning, while Brian is at work, and Katie is sleeping in the girl's bed in the main house, Angela sneaks into the guest house to snoop and discovers Katie's secrets, confirming that she is mentally ill and she was a previous donor. Angela gets a DNA test for the girls but realizes that Katie has drugged her and rushes home, where she confronts Katie. Katie admits everything and stabs herself in the stomach, possibly harming the baby. Katie says she will tell everyone that Angela tried to kill her. Katie is taken to the ER and an emergency C-section takes place. A healthy baby boy named Gabriel is born. But what is later revealed is that the DNA test came back and showed that Maddie and Cora were related to each other and to Katie, meaning Angela had told the truth. It is also revealed that she killed Maddie's parents before abducting her and claiming her as her own. In the end, Katie is locked up and Angela, Brian, Maddie, Cora and baby Gabriel are a happy family.

On October 29, 2018, Michael Myers, who has been institutionalized at Smith's Grove Psychiatric Hospital for 40 years following his killing spree in Haddonfield, is being prepared for transfer to a maximum security prison. True crime journalists Aaron Korey and Dana Haines visit the hospital and, during their encounter, Aaron presents the mask that Michael wore in 1978 to him, to no effect. The following day, as he is being transferred, Michael purposely crashes the bus, kills a father and son for their car, and returns to Haddonfield. In Haddonfield, Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) is still living in fear of Michael; she is drinking heavily, rarely leaving her fortified house and alienating herself from her daughter Karen (Judy Greer), whom the state took away from her at age 12. The only person she keeps in contact with is Karen's daughter, Allyson (Andi Matichak). On the morning of October 31, Michael sees Aaron and Dana visiting his sister Judith's grave. He follows them to a gas station where he kills them both, as well as a mechanic for his coveralls, and then recovers his old mask from Aaron's car. Deputy Frank Hawkins (Will Patton), who arrested Michael in 1978, tries to convince Sheriff Barker about the danger Michael poses after learning that he has escaped. Laurie also learns of Michael's escape and attempts to warn Karen, but Karen dismisses her concerns, urging Laurie to move on with her life. Later that night, at a costume party, Allyson finds her boyfriend Cameron cheating on her, and leaves with his friend Oscar. Meanwhile, while babysitting Julian, Allyson's best friend Vicky and her boyfriend Dave are attacked by Michael. Vicky sacrifices herself to protect Julian. Deputy Hawkins and Laurie overhear the incident on the radio and go over to the house. Laurie sees Michael, coming face-to-face with him for the first time in 40 years. Laurie shoots Michael in the shoulder before he flees. Dr. Ranbir Sartain (Haluk Bilginer), Michael's psychiatrist, persuades Sheriff Barker to allow him to help in the hunt for Michael. Meanwhile, on the walk home from the party, Michael finds and kills Oscar, and Hawkins and Sartain arrive just in time to rescue Allyson. Hawkins then tries to kill Michael but Sartain – who has become obsessed with Michael's enigmatic motivations – attacks and leaves Hawkins for dead, and it is revealed that he orchestrated Michael's escape in order to be able to study him "in the wild". However Michael kills Sartain and Allyson flees from the scene. Michael then ambushes and kills two police officers arriving at the scene. Michael drives the dead officers' car to Laurie's house, where she and Karen have gone to meet with Allyson. When Laurie's son- in-law Ray goes outside to greet who he believes are the two officers, Michael strangles him to death. Laurie manages to get Karen to safety before she engages in a showdown with Michael. Laurie severely injures Michael, but then he stabs her in the abdomen and pushes her over a balcony. When Michael goes to check Laurie's body, he finds it missing. Allyson arrives and calls out for her grandmother, luring Michael and giving Karen the opportunity to shoot him in the jaw. Laurie suddenly reappears and attacks Michael, trapping him inside the basement safe room with Karen and Allyson's help. The trio set the house ablaze, and Laurie says goodbye to Michael before she begins to faint and let her daughters quickly hitchhike a passerby vehicle to take her to the hospital. A final shot of the burning basement is shown, with Michael nowhere in sight. In a post-credits scene, Michael's breathing is heard, indicating that he survived.

A month after the events of Lady Midnight, Clary Fairchild and Jace Herondale visit the Los Angeles Institute to ask Mark Blackthorn about the entrance to Faerie, as they believe that Clary's brother, Sebastian Morgenstern, had left a weapon at the hands of the Seelie Queen. Clary confesses to Emma Carstairs that she has been dreaming about her death. The Shadowhunters investigate Malcolm Fade's house and find out that he had been consorting with the Unseelie King. When they return, the Institute has been taken over by Centurions, graduates from the Scholomanche, led by Zara Dearborn, who reveals that she is engaged to Diego Rosales. This upsets Cristina, since she has just reconciled with him. Meanwhile, Kit, having learned that he is a Shadowhunter named Christopher Herondale, tries to leave the Institute several times, but is dissuaded by Jace and Ty. He is, however, barred from visiting the local Shadow Market because of his status. Clary and Jace subsequently leave for Faerie. Emma, Julian, and Mark are visited by Gwyn of the Wild Hunt pleading Mark to save Kieran. Kieran had killed the Unseelie King's right-hand man, Iarlath, and is about to be executed. The trio and Cristina enter Faerie, where they navigate through its deceptive environment as they are confronted by their desires: Emma's and Julian's forbidden love and Cristina's and Mark's newfound love for each other, which binds the latter with a curse. When they reach the Unseelie Court, the group challenge the King for a trial by combat for Kieran's release, with Emma becoming a champion. She briefly hesitates when her opponent assumes her father's face, but manages to kill him. As the group leave with an amnesiac Kieran, they are pursued by the Unseelie faeries until a Seelie faerie, Nene, arrives at the last second to take them to the Seelie Queen. Nene is revealed to be Mark's aunt, sister of his mother, Nerissa. Back in Los Angeles, Kit, Ty, and Livvy spy on Zara, who wants to take over the Institute and plans to destroy all Downworlders. When they return, they see the Blackthorns' uncle, Arthur, rambling incoherently, and are told about his condition by Diana Wrayburn. The Institute is subsequently attacked by a resurrected Malcolm Fade, still demands a Blackthorn sacrifice. Arthur sacrifices himself while Diana portals herself and everyone else to the London Institute. Malcolm kills Arthur to bring back his lover, Annabel Blackthorn, who immediately kills him before walking away with the Black Volume. The entire event is watched by Emma and the others at Faerie. The Seelie Queen offers Julian a way to break his parabatai bond with Emma in exchange for retrieving the Black Volume, then asks the others for help to overthrow the Unseelie King. She chooses Kieran to become ambassador between the Shadowhunters and faeries. Kieran in turn pleads fealty to Cristina. To keep him contented, Mark and Emma agree to stop pretending to be in a relationship with each other. The group then ride with the Wild Hunt towards the London Institute, where they reunite with the others. After getting his first rune, Kit meets the ghost of Jessamine Lovelace and obtains information about Malcolm's former home in England, located in Polperro. There, they learn the full story of Malcolm and Annabel's past: the two were captured when they attempted to leave with the Black Volume, with Annabel being executed after she was led to believe that Malcolm abandoned her. Annabel briefly visits Julian but refuses to hand over the Black Volume. From a faerie, Julian and Emma learn about the church where Annabel was resurrected in Talland. However, it turns out to be a trap and the two have no choice but to burn the church down using a heightened form of their parabatai bond. Back at London, Kit, Ty, and Livvy visit the former Blackthorn Manor and find a crystal containing Annabel's memories. Afterwards, they visit the local Shadow Market, meeting a warlock named Shade, who helps them extract the memories. When demons attack them, Magnus Bane arrives to help them return to the Institute. Kit and Ty discover a hidden passage to the Cornwall Institute and leave behind a letter for Annabel. Cristina gets close with Kieran and follows him when he visits his brother, Adaon, to convince him to take over the Unseelie throne upon their father's death. However, they are ambushed by another brother, Erec. Kieran kills Erec, but not before the latter tells him that their father has sent the Riders of Mannan to hunt the group. Dru is secretly visited by Diego's brother, Jaime, and lets him see Cristina. He tells her that Zara is engaged to Diego so she can take the Rosales family heirloom, the Eternidad, which is currently in Jaime's possession. Dru touches the Eternidad and is briefly transported to Faerie, where she meets a boy named Ash. When Cristina and Kieran try to contact Adaon again, they are linked to the Unseelie King, who tries to manipulate Kieran by returning his memories. Kieran is upset, but is convinced by Cristina to forgive Mark. Meanwhile, Diana heads to Idris to talk with Consul Penhallow. She begins dating Gwyn, confessing that she is a transgender, which is the reason why she refuses Penhallow's offer to lead the L.A. Institute, as she does not want to be outed. The two save Kit, Ty, and Livvy when they are attacked by the Riders, who also attack Emma and Julian until the former manages to kill one of them. Diana discovers that patches of dying lands have appeared in Idris and learns that they are not an isolated incident. Magnus brings Emma and Julian back to the London Institute. There, the Riders once again attack but are defeated by Annabel, who received Ty's message and came to their aid. She agrees to testify at the Clave and give Julian the Black Volume, which he takes a copy with his phone, if she is protected by Magnus and given the Blackthorn Manor. Magnus removes Cristina's and Mark's curse and also advises Julian to talk to the Inquisitor, Robert Lightwood, so Emma and Julian can voluntarily exile and legally have a relationship. Emma, Cristina, and the Blackthorns set towards Idris, while Diego takes Kieran to the Scholomanche for his safety. The Blackthorns reunite with their eldest sister, Helen, now engaged to the Consul's daughter, Aline. When it is Annabel's turn to be interrogated, Magnus suddenly falls ill, rendering him unable to protect her. She is repeatedly insulted and experiences flashbacks of her previous interrogation. Freaking out, she steals the Mortal Sword and kills Robert with it before engaging in a frenzied murder among the Clave. Confronting her, Emma surprisingly manages to destroy the Mortal Sword with her own sword, Cortana. However, Annabel uses the shards to kill Livvy. As Julian is left to cradle Livvy, Emma tries to follow Annabel but fails, only glimpsing her taking off with the Unseelie King before disappearing to parts unknown.

A psychiatrist, Charles (Chris Bauer), has his career and life become derailed after he refuses to testify on behalf of a former patient who had become clinically violent and unstable, resulting in the deaths of multiple people following a tragic breakdown of his mental complications. The patient then claims that Charles will not testify in court or to the police because the patient is openly part of the LGBT community. Further, the patient claims that Charles has recently gone through a religious conversion in his own personal identity which has resulted in a fully prejudiced reassessment of the gay community as a whole. Charles claims that the basis of these accusations are false and due to a misunderstanding. The misunderstanding resulted from an innocent mistyping of the title of an article that Charles wrote years ago about homosexuality where the title was "Homosexuality as an Adaptation," though the published version was released by the editor as the mistyped "Homosexuality as an Aberration." The resulting recriminations put Charles's entire career at risk and threaten to end his practice permanently.

Dusk takes place in and around the fictitious rural town of Dusk, Pennsylvania. A huge network of "Lovecraftian ruins" are discovered underneath a section of farmland, which attracts the attention of the government. Military personnel and scientists establish research labs and factories in the town in an attempt to harness the magic of the ruins. Much of the research team soon fall victim to a series of demonic possessions and industrial disasters, which force the remnants of the team out of the town. A large perimeter wall is built around the town, sealing it off from the outside world. The player takes the role of a nameless treasure hunter ("DuskDude" or "The Intruder"), who's heard rumors that hidden riches exist within the sealed town. The treasure hunter is apprehended by the town's denizens, brought to a secluded farmhouse, and propped onto a meathook. The Foothills, the first episode, is largely set in the country outskirts around Dusk's perimeter wall. After the treasure hunter escapes from the farmhouse, he travels across a variety of rural environments such as swamps, barnyards, cornfields, and sawmills. After breaching the perimeter wall and entering the town, the protagonist uncovers an underground passageway, which ultimately leads him to an industrial zone on the outskirts of the city. In the second episode, The Facilities, the player character fights through the remnants of the possessed military and science personnel, who guard an array of occult machines within the industrial zone. In the penultimate level of the episode, it's revealed that the machines extract power from the minced remains of slaughtered humans. Deep in the ruins of the industrial complex, the treasure hunter finds an otherworldly portal, which he activates and walks through. In the third and final episode, The Nameless City, the treasure hunter finds himself in an alternate reality. After passing through a cathedral, the treasure hunter travels through various locations, with eventually him being forced into a trial that takes place within a corrupted version of the treasure hunter's memories. In the end, the treasure hunter confronts and defeats the cult's leader, named Jakob, whom in turn is killed by his followers. The treasure hunter then is confronted by the godlike being responsible for the events taking place in the town, referred to as Nyarlathotep, and defeats it as well. However, before the treasure hunter is able to deal the killing blow, Nyarlathotep claims the treasure hunter to be "worthy" and gives him an unknown power, presumably corrupting the treasure hunter in the process and taking Jakob's place as leader of the cult. Nyarlathotep then places the treasure hunter in a kind of stasis "until [Nyarlathotep] has need of [him] again".

From 9 To 5 was a gag-a-day single panel strip focusing on a shapely office secretary named Hysteria, her equally fit best friend Deleria, and their daily interactions with life, at the office of Wump Widgets, with Mr. Wump, the boss, at lunch, in the market, after work, and so forth. Boyfriends were mentioned but rarely shown. The characters were drawn in a cartoony style (men's faces was little more than a group of circles and half circles) but great attention was given to the girls' clothes styles with them wearing a wide variety of designer jackets, sweaters and blouses, all, invariably, over tight-fitting calf-length black skirts with legs faintly outlined.

Dr. Jane Mathis (Vinessa Shaw) is a psychiatrist and an expert at confrontational therapy. Two years ago, she had a patient, Nora Green, who attacked her and attempted suicide in her home. As a result, Dr. Mathis developed PTSD and sleep paralysis, which led her to seek help from Dr. Terry. She has also begun to date a police officer named Miles. Against Dr. Terry's advice, she continues her practice as a psychologist, albeit not prescribing medication. She reluctantly agrees to see a new patient, Alex, whose face is disfigured from a car accident. One night, he is seen sleepwalking inside her house, prompting Jane to call the police. Alex persuades her to continue their sessions, appealing to her expertise and understanding. In flashbacks, it is revealed that Nora Green began seeing Jane because she was being abused by her father. After confronting him, Nora attacked Jane, who received severe stab wounds to her arms. In present-day, Jane visits the institution where Nora was hospitalized and is informed that Nora was discharged due to lack of money after her father's death. She sees footage of Nora's sessions at the institution, which reveals Nora's violent rage anytime she speaks about her father. Jane installs security cameras around her home, and reveals to Alex her previous failure with Nora, chalking it up to relying too heavily on medication. Alex recalls more of his accident; after helping pull a couple from their totaled car, he noticed his daughter wandered into the path of an oncoming truck. Both were struck, but only his daughter was killed. Strange things continue to occur in Jane's house, such as dirty footprints and bloody photographs. Miles notices that someone has tampered with the security system, as whole hours of footage are missing. Jane refuses to press charges against Nora for fear that she will be sent back to the institution and drugged. She later steals prescriptions from Dr. Terry, having run out of her own medication. Alex shows up at her house even though Jane had canceled all her patients and she explains that there needs to be boundaries between doctor and patient. In another bout of sleep paralysis, Jane relives the horror of Nora's attack two years ago. When she awakes disoriented, Nora appears and attacks Jane. In self defense, Jane stabs Nora in the head, killing her. Jane is institutionalized, enduring confusion and heavy sedation. The resident psychiatrist shows her security footage from her home, which reveal that during a drug-induced hysteria, she attacked and killed Miles. She is to be held in the institution until her trial. Days pass and one night, Jane sees Nora hanging from the tree outside. Her friend Clara visits but when she leaves, she is tasered. The psychiatrist condescendingly explains to Jane that Nora had said she killed her father but her father was alive and was paying her hospital bills. He says Nora killed herself by hanging after she left the hospital and accuses Jane of driving Nora to insanity. Jane realizes Nora's father is Alex and breaks out of the institution. In the same way as Clara, she is tasered. She wakes up in her home and sees Clara dead. Alex enters and explains that he wanted to punish her for trying to help Nora, his daughter. Nora had attacked him in self defense, which led to his disfigured face, and he staged the car accident to explain his injuries and make it onto the donor list for a skin graft. He also stopped paying Nora's bills to get her out, and made her break into Jane's house and psychologically torment her. The night of the murder, Alex had broke in and drugged Jane, which led her to accidentally kill Miles. Jane finds Dr. Terry in a pool of blood. While attempting to escape through the window, she is pulled back by Alex. She grabs at his face and pulls off the grafted skin as she falls. She returns to the house and sees Alex sitting on the couch, faceless and presumably dead.

USSR, Moscow in the 1980s. A unique violin made by Antonio Stradivari is stolen from the apartment of the famous violinist Lev Osipovich Polyakov. Attorney Stanislav Tikhonov and police lieutenant Elena Nechayeva proceed to investigate the case. First, suspicions fall on Obolnikov, neighbor of the Polyakov family. But it turns out that although Obolnikov did secretly enter the apartment of the violinist he was not involved in the theft. Then Pavel Ikonnikov becomes the suspect – a former violinist who was once well acquainted with Polyakov. A motive is evident: envy of the more fortunate and successful colleague could push Ikonnikov toward crime. Some information which includes an anonymous letter indicates that Ikonnikov could be involved in the theft. But also in this case Tikhonov and Nechayeva are wrong. Moreover, Ikonnikov, deeply offended with the unfounded suspicions in his address, commits suicide. As farewell, Ikonnikov wrote a letter to Tikhonov, in which he states that the person who slandered him is apparently a person who is very close to Ikonnikov. An unexpected breakthrough in this complicated case is the appearance of the stolen cassette player belonging to Polyakov. Clinging to this evidence, the investigation manages to come upon the "master thief" Melnik, who helped criminals open the door to the violinists apartment. There were two criminals - "Cross" and "Boss" but they can not be found. A random occurrence helps Tikhonov. During confrontation with arrested Melnik, piano tuner Gregory Belash suddenly gives false testimony that Melnik and Ikonnikov met with each other after the violin was stolen. Tikhonov for the first time begins to suspect Belash whom he previously liked. Attorney examines in detail Belash's alibi on the day of the theft and discovers that Belash is one of the criminals, the very same "Boss". Belash is arrested, but the most dangerous criminal "Cross" is still at large. He is armed and dangerous and most importantly - the Stradivarius violin is in his hands. It would seem that to catch this cunning and cautious offender is impossible, but unexpected "help" to the investigation is offered by an empty jar of pickled mushrooms. Tikhonov and Nechayeva apprehend "Cross" and Elena is seriously injured. And in the very last moment customs delay departure of a plane from the USSR on which a foreigner is boarded who has bought the Stradivarius from "Cross", trying to take the priceless musical instrument abroad. At the same time a second story- line unfolds in the film about the great violin maker Antonio Stradivari. Italy, Cremona, end of the - 17th - start of the 18th century.

Stradivarius leaves Amati, marries, one after the other four sons are born, but nobody buys Stradivarius' instruments, Amati is for the most famous violin maker in Europe, and simply no one knows of Stradivarius. But soon Fortuna finally smiles upon the despairing Stradivarius; his instruments are finally becoming more popular. Antonio becomes rich, he and his family begin to live in luxury, but this does not stop Stradivarius for even a moment. Antonio continues to search for more and more sophisticated ways of processing wood, varnish manufacture, so that his violins sound better and better. But Stradivarius is unhappy because circumstances concerning his family unfold in a woeful way. His beloved wife dies, eldest son becomes a merchant-slaver, middle son - a Jesuit monk, and two younger sons do not have either the talent nor the desire to learn the violin business. Soon Stradivarius is offered with a unique chance to pass on his knowledge and skill onto worthy hands as to him comes a young man named Giuseppe Guarneri and asks the great master to take him as a disciple. Alas, Stradivarius refuses future genius, and Guarneri is forced to literally sell himself into slavery to the Jesuits. For food and accommodation Giuseppe is obliged for 15 years to give all the musical instruments he made. As the years go by, one day on the street Stradivarius hears the sound of Guarneri's violin. Tears appear in the old master's eyes as he realizes that someone has created a violin that sounds better than his musical instruments...

Hero Pandiarajan comes to Chennai to work as an assistant manager in the Velvet shampoo company. In the bus he meets R Sundarrajan. Sundarrajan tricks Pandiarajan into staying awake for the entire duration of the bus's overnight travel time whereas Sundarrajan peacefully sleeps. Sundarrajan irritates him even more by saying the next time Pandiarajan takes a bus ride he should inform Sundarrajan, so that Sundarrajan can again use Pandiarajan as an unpaid guard for his belongings. Pandiarajan joins the company and to his surprise he finds Sundarrajan to be one of the Watchmen at the company. Pandiarajan takes revenge by assigning Sundarrajan to night duty for three winter months. Pandiarajan then finds a rental house. He reduces the rent to a very low amount by convincing the house owner by telling him that he would help out in menial household tasks and work for free for a few hours in the owner's cycle repair shop. Pandiarajan also meets Sangeetha, the heroine, who lives in the house opposite to his. He promptly falls in love with her. He tries to get the local petty shop owner Manivannan to introduce him to Sangeetha. Manivannan calls Sangeetha to the shop and introduces Pandiarajan to her. Just before he shakes her hand, he sees an old man get into an accident with his scooter. A small kid falls in front of the scooter and falls down. Pandiarajan wanting to make a good first impression, slaps the old man. But the man turns out to be the Sangeetha's father. Sangeetha understandably gets very upset and scolds Pandiarajan. The next day Pandiarajan explains to Manivannan how he couldn't have guessed how the guy who he hit could be the heroine's father. He reasons the man was so ugly looking like coal and the heroine was so beautiful looking like Bangalore tomatoes and there was no way the man could be her father. Unbeknownst to him the heroine is actually standing behind Pandiarajan when he says this. Now she gets very angry as he has questioned her Patrentage. To add to Pandiarajan's woes further, his grandma arrives from the village and upon hearing Pandiarajan's love troubles decides to take matters in her own hand. Since her eyesight is not good, she misunderstands the heroine's mother to be the heroine and asks the mother to marry Pandiarajan. This also irritates the heroine. Another parallel thread is how a group of inept rowdies think Pandiarajan as a big shot and claims him to be their leader when Pandiarajan gets drunk and unwittingly beats up a big local rowdy. His association with these rowdies also irritates the heroine. Because Pandiarajan couldn't make a direct good impression on her, he tries to help her anonymously. Everytime she faces a monetary problem Pandiarajan takes money from his savings and spends it for her. He even spends his savings for his grandma's eye surgery on the heroine's needs such as her College fees. Now enters Karan. Since Pandiarajan pays very less amount as rent, the house owner forces Pandiarajan to take upon Karan as roommate. Karan is a fraud. He steals Pandiarajan's certificates and secures a job. He also sees Sangeetha and tries to woo her. He impresses Sangeetha and her parents too. Whatever bad Karan does, it falls on Pandiarajan, bringing his respect and name even more down with the heroine. Whatever good Pandiarajan does, it seems like Sangeetha misunderstands it and thinks the good is done by Karan. R Sundarrajan actually turns out to be Sangeetha's uncle. Sundarrajan comes to know that Pandiarajan is in love with Sangeetha. He makes Pandiarajan make him the day shift Watchman again. He also uses Pandiarajan to get money, eat at high class restaurants and other benefits. Pandiarajan begrudgingly allows all this so that Sundarrajan could get Sangeetha fall in love with him. But these efforts also fail. When Pandiarajan almost gives up on his love, luck comes in the form of the comedic rowdy gang who adopted Pandiarajan as their leader. They want to show some gratitude as Pandiarajan beating up the old big don has boosted the revenues for these small time rowdies. But they also mistakenly think Pandiarajan loves Sangeetha's mother and so they kidnap her. Pandiarajan mentions that he actually loves the daughter. The rowdies again kidnap Sangeetha. Upon hearing this, all the people in Pandiarajan's housing colony tries to rescue the two women from the clutches of the inept rowdies in their customary rundown factory which they use for kidnapping and other illegal activities. Karan uses this confusion to try to marry Sangeetha but she refuses and opens up the truth. She actually loved Pandiarajan all along and she knew all the good things were done by him. She also knew Karan was undeservingly taking the credit due for Pandiarajan. She wanted Pandiarajan to come out of his shyness, insecurities and confidence issues to propose to her. For that reason she irritated Pandiarajan by her friendship with Karan. She basically had used Karan to get Pandiarajan out of his shell. Karan, obviously as a villain, tries to force her into marrying him. Pandiarajan, upon hearing the heroine's admission of love, gets confidence and beats up Karan and saves Sangeetha. Pandiarajan and Sangeetha then happily marry.

The Interdependency is a thousand-year-old human empire of 48 star systems connected by the Flow, a network of "streams" allowing faster-than-light travel. Each stream is one way and has an entry point and an exit point. There is no faster-than-light communication faster than the Flow, and interstellar trips are not instantaneous—ships carrying mail or passengers from Hub, the capital of the empire and the system with the most Flow connections, arrive at End, the most distant, nine months later—but the network permits life- sustaining intersystem trade. As a natural phenomenon, the Flow is poorly understood; Earth disconnected from the network thousands of years ago, and civilization on another system collapsed more recently when its pathway suddenly closed. Family-owned megacorporations control all interstellar trade in the Interdependency's mercantile economy; one, House Wu, is the royal family. The trading houses are incredibly wealthy from government-sanctioned monopolies and by collecting tolls at "shoals", entrances and exits to Flow pathways. The state religion, with the Emperox as titular head, celebrates the Interdependency as a divinely sanctioned society. Count Claremont, a physicist on End, calculates after decades of study that the Flow will soon collapse. All systems will be isolated; none are self-sufficient. Humans can only live on a planetary surface on End; they need space stations or underground habitats in other systems. Without the Flow, society on every system will likely collapse. The count sends his son Marce, also a physicist, to Hub to warn his old friend Emperox Attavio VI. The Emperox has died, however, and his unprepared daughter Cardenia is crowned as Grayland II. House Nohamapetan wants to marry an heir to Cardenia to gain power. It believes that the Flow will change but not collapse, with End becoming the new center of the network. The house covertly supports rebels on End to overthrow its duke, hoping to take power and become the new royal family when the Flow network reshapes. Thousands of imperial troops are sent to End after terrorist bombings on Hub, allegedly caused by End conspirators but actually by the house. Marce's ship is the last to leave End before its Flow entrance shoal closes; the system's exit shoal will be the last to close. Although Nohamapetan's plan to assassinate Cardenia is exposed, its family member on End frames Count Claremont for murdering the Duke of End and becomes the new Duke. The novel ends with Marce and Cardenia believing that they need to warn every system of the collapse and the need to evacuate people to End. Other nobles and bureaucrats are skeptical of their civilization's coming collapse, and Nohamapetan controls the Flow exit and imperial troops at End.

Her husband, Kim Jong-chan, decides to run for office against the powerful incumbent, No Jae-soon (Kim Eui-sung). A few days before the elections, Yeon-hong and Jong-chan's daughter, Kim Min-jin (Shin Ji-hoon), goes missing. At first, they assume she has run off to seek their attention as she had done before. However, Yeon-hong soon finds out that the friend Min-jin she said she was going to meet does not exist. Then Yeon-hong learns from the school her daughter attends that she had an eccentric friend named Choi Mi-ok (Kim So-hee) and they were both bullied by their classmates. While questioning Mi-ok, Yeon-hong notices the girl is wearing an expensive watch that looks like her daughter's despite coming from a poor family. Yeon- hong becomes suspicious and tells this to Jong-chan. However, her husband is more preoccupied with his campaign. Yeon-hong then hacks into her daughter's email account and finds leaked examination papers sent by a young female teacher at her school. Yeon-hong knows the teacher since she once invited Jong-chan to the school as a guest speaker. The teacher eventually admits she leaked the papers but only to help Min-jin and Mi-ok improve their grades so that they can become popular to avoid getting bullied. As the police detectives fail to find any leaks, a desperate Yeon-hong goes to a shaman to find her daughter. However, it is all too late when the police finds Min-jin's dead body in the woods. A traumatized Yeon-hong blames her husband for their daughter's murder to get the city's sympathy vote since he refuses to tell the detectives where he and his driver were during the night Min-jin went missing. Despite his daughter's murder, Jong-chan is convinced by his party's president to continue his campaign. Yeon-hong continues with her own investigation and finds an abandoned building where Min-jin and Mi-ok would practice their music. Yeon-hong convinces the police to hypnotize her but it is not helpful. They then run a lie detector test on her which reveals she is lying when she denies burying Min-jin's body but passes when she confesses that she did not kill her best friend. It is then revealed that Mi-ok is actually the daughter of Jong-chan's driver. Yeon-hong theorizes that Mi-ok was jealous of Min-jin for being rich and killed her out of jealousy. However, she has no evidence to prove it. Yeon-hong then breaks into Min-jin and Mi-ok's secret hideout and finds money hidden away in a bag. When Mi-ok shows up, Yeon-hong captures her and forces her to tell the truth about Min-jin's murder. Mi-ok finally reveals that she and Min-jin became best friends after discovering they both shared the same taste in music. Min-jin then starts to suspect their teacher is having an affair. They then give the teacher a car air freshener with a hidden camera inside, which records the teacher having wild sex in her car with her secret lover. Min-jin and Mi-ok then uses the recordings to blackmail their teacher for exam papers. Since Mi-ok's family is poor, Min-jin then blackmails the teacher for money. One night, the two girls are out playing in the rain when a car runs over Min-jun while Mi-ok is hiding in the bushes. While the driver exits the car to take a photo of Min-jun's dead body, Mi-ok sneaks into the car and runs over the killer as well. She then carries Min-jin's body away and buries it in the woods after taking the contract killer's phone with her. Mi-ok is sure her teacher arranged for her and Min-jun to be killed. Yeon-hong takes the phone and is shown hatching a plan to kill the person who sent the contract killer to murder her daughter. Later that day over dinner, Yeon-hong tells her husband that although No Jae-son most likely had nothing to do with their daughter's death, he must use the sympathy vote to win the election. Later that night, while her husband is celebrating his victory, Yeon-hong calls up the person who hired the contract killer and forces them to come to the scene of the crime or else she will leak the sex video onto the net. The person then shows up and it is not the teacher, but Jong-chan. Through flashbacks, we see that the man the teacher was having an affair with is none other than Jong-chan. After Min-jin blackmailed her teacher, the teacher told Jong-chan she is being blackmailed by two of her own students but does not tell him it is his own daughter and her best friend. Jong-chan unwittingly hired the contract killer to murder his own daughter. Yeon-hong ties her husband up and beats him in anger. She then uploads his sex video onto the internet as he watches helplessly.

The film has both dramatic and purely documentary aspects, following a German farming family as they have their farm foreclosed on, are forced to move to the city and eventually return to farming in the German East. The documentary uses both animation and montage to present the case that the German farmer is suffering because alleged Jewish financial interests flood the market with foreign produce, refuse to lend money for the manufacture of farming equipment and foreclose on people's farms. An unseen narrator encourages viewers to purchase only domestic goods and return to rural agrarian life.

How will Zubia get her respect back? Despite Rehan and Sheena's arguments, Khalil gets her admitted to a medical college as it was her mother's wish that she becomes a doctor. As soon as she was about to complete her MBBS and her marriage was fixed, Khalil dies. After a few months, Sheena's relative from abroad came to visit her and takes interest in Zubia. In the middle of the night, he, without Zubia's consent, enters her room and walks closer to her. Zubia yells and after Rehan and Sheema find them in the room together, the guy falsely accuses Zubia of calling him to repair her laptop and asking him for sexual favours.

Her brother refuses to believe her and she was thrown out of the house. She went to her aunt Mahjabin's home in Peshawar who believes her. She lives there for a few weeks but because she thought Aunt's son and daughter in law's lives are being disturbed, she leaves and joins a hostel. She gives a job interview with Asfand's newly established hospital. Where she instantly feels as if she has already seen him somewhere. From day one, she is scolded a lot by Dr. Asfandyar and that's why she also calls him Hitler. Asfandyar is now very intelligent but very arrogant. His brother's death resulted in him becoming a bitter person. Zubia and Gaeti (wife of Daniyal) become very good friends after meeting in a nearby sitting area. Zubia didn't know that she was the sister in law of Asfandyar. When Zubia learns that he is also the brother in law of Gaeti she became angry and didn't talk to Gaeti as she blames her for not telling her this and believes that now Asfandyar will think as if Dr. Zubia is trying to impress his family to gain benefits and profit in her job. After a few days, they make up with each other. Zubia searched and found that he was the person who saved her from Ramiz. Gaeti also tells her all about her family, Asfi and Daniyal. After some time Zubia realizes that Gaeti and Dr. Haroon (Zubia's colleague) can get married as Dr. Haroon also lost his dearest wife in an accident just like Gaeti lost Daniyal. On the other hand, Asfandyar's family wants him to get married to Zubia. As because of her positive nature, Gaeti left behind her trauma of Daniyal's death and started to socialize.

In the meantime, Faryal came back and she wishes to marry Asfi because her husband divorced her and that she regrets her ill-treatment with Asfi during that difficult phase. But Asfi did not agree to marry her and she went back to her home. Here, Urooj Nisar who was Daniyal ex-secretary and accused him of raping her, comes to the hospital with her injured son who met a car accident as he was drunk. Asfi identifies who she is right in the first sight, so does she. He locks himself in his office and cries remembering his brother. He performs surgery on Urooj's son without taking a single penny from her. In extreme guilt, Urooj calls upon a press conference and confesses all her crimes and ask for forgiveness. Everyone from Zubia, to Faryal and her parents, everyone saw it on the media and Daniyal's family finally feels proud that their son lost his life in trying to protect humanity. Asfandyar and his father travel and visit Daniyal's grave and attend a seminar which is held to honour Daniyal. After he returned, he proposes Zubia but she rejects the proposal saying that temporary infatuation doesn't mean you can get married. She does this because she has lied a lot about her past to everyone and believers that when Asfi will end up remembering the Ramiz incident, he will leave Zubia to think that she is a characterless woman. Both are heartbroken. Rehan, on the other hand, wakes up in the middle of the night and wishes to ask forgiveness from Zubia. So he comes to the hospital to meet her. Zubia notices him and gets very tensed and thought that now everyone will find out that I lied about not having a brother, etc. She becomes hopeless and flees from the hospital. Asfi locates her and finds her standing high up on the roof, below which is a lake. Asfandyar is shocked and runs to save her but she had jumped into the lake, and thus committing suicide. On the very second, Asfandyar takes help from local people and rescue her before she would sink completely. Asfandyar brought her to the hospital while she remained unconscious. Here finds about her brother, her past and also remembers the Ramiz incident. After Zubia gains consciousness Asfandyar tells her that he doesn't care about anything but only her. They tearfully hug. Rehan is also forgiven by Zubia. Dr. Haroon and Gaeti are married too. In a voiceover by Zubia, she mentions that it has been a year since she and Asfandyar have been happily married. And that all the hardships and challenges Allah had in store for you, he also rewards you with blessings in return. In the end, everything was worth it and happened for a reason.

The story was adapted from a novella by Robert Louis Stevenson. In the first act, attorney J. G. Utterson is at a London vicarage, talking to the vicar, Reverend William Howell. Howell relates a story about how he intervened when he saw a boy being beaten by a man named Edward Hyde. Utterson is dismayed to hear the name Edward Hyde. After the vicar leaves, Utterson speaks with Dr. Lanyon, then with Dr. Henry Jekyll, who lives next door to the vicarage. After Jekyll and Utterson leave, Lanyon speaks to the vicar's daughter, Sybil Howell, who admits to being in love with Jekyll. Sybil sees that Lanyon does not approve, and she asks Jekyll about it when he returns. He says she would not understand, and begins talking about the dual presence of good and evil in men. Suddenly, Jekyll feels that a "change is approaching", and runs into the shadows. Edward Hyde emerges from the shadows and menaces Sybil. She calls for her father, who enters and is immediately attacked and murdered by Hyde. Hyde runs away; Jekyll returns and asks who has attacked them. With his dying breath, the vicar says it was Hyde. In the second act, Inspector Newcomen shows Utterson part of the walking stick that Hyde used to club Howell. Utterson recognizes it as one he gave to Jekyll. Newcomen vows to find the killer, and asks to interview Sybil, who has been staying with Utterson since the murder. Jekyll visits Utterson with a letter from Hyde, claiming he has departed. When Jekyll leaves, Utterson's assistant, Mr. Guest, points out that the handwriting on the letter is very similar to Jekyll's. When Utterson leaves, Jekyll returns and delivers a monologue confessing that he is the murderer. After a brief conversation with Sybil, Jekyll leaves, and Utterson's niece Lilian brings in a group of choirboys from Howell's church, who sing a song for Sybil. Then Utterson and Newcomen return, saying they play to lay a trap for Hyde. Sybil insists on going with them. When Hyde approaches the vicarage, he is chased by the police. In the third act, Utterson and the police discuss their failure to catch Hyde. Officer O'Brien says he thought Hyde came into the vicarage, but he saw Jekyll approaching him instead. Utterson tells the police that Jekyll has been allowing Hyde into his laboratory. Sybil overhears this and is distraught to learn that Jekyll has helped her father's killer. Sybil resolves to investigate the case herself by visiting Hyde's landlady, Mrs. Viley. Lilian goes with her. In return for money, Viley tells them that she has never met Jekyll, but has heard Hyde threaten repeatedly to kill him. Hyde returns home and attacks Viley when he learns she has received money from Sybil. Viley screams for the police and Hyde flees. In the act's final scene, Lanyon waits in his office with drugs from Jekyll's laboratory that he retrieved on written instructions from Jekyll. Hyde arrives to retrieve the drugs. In front of Lanyon, Hyde mixes the drugs and drinks the resulting potion, which transforms him into Jekyll. The fourth act begins four months later. Lanyon has died of shock, and Jekyll refuses to see Utterson or Sybil. Sybil is still angry that Jekyll is believed to have helped Hyde; Lilian, who always disliked Jekyll, supports Sybil's anger. One of Jekyll's servants, Poole, visits to say he fears Jekyll has been murdered. Someone is secluded in Jekyll's study, claiming to be him and communicating mostly through written notes, but Poole thinks it is someone else. Utterson, Sybil, and Lilian agree to accompany Poole to confront the person in Jekyll's study. Utterson and Poole find Jekyll's servants huddled together in fear of the person in the study. In the study, Jekyll gives a monologue explaining that he can no longer find the ingredients for his potion, and therefore will soon revert to Hyde without the ability to transform back. Sybil comes to the study and sees that Jekyll appears ill. He tells her they will marry when he is better, but when she leaves he monologues that he will die soon, then he transforms into Hyde. When Utterson and Poole come to the study door, Hyde commits suicide by drinking poison.

The story takes place in Branson County, North Carolina. Within that county, the biggest city, Troy, is mainly peaceful and undisturbed. The town lives a rather typical southern lifestyle in which the town members carry on their usual business such as working and chatting with others within the town. It is known for its “southern simplicity.” Troy is described as a town with “no very wealthy families” fitting the description of having a town of “poor whites” The town's typical occurrences are disrupted when Captain Walker, a respected Civil War veteran, with one arm, was murdered. The town was in a stand still since murder rarely happened in Troy. The townspeople within the town became frantic and angered by the murder. Thus, the Sheriff, assembled a group of citizens to search for the murderer. The murderer was caught and taken to the jail house. It was assumed to be a local mulatto man named Tom who was the last person to be seen with Captain Walker before the discovery of his murder. The citizens of the town, however, were not satisfied with the Sheriff holding Tom in the county jail until his hearing. A mob formed within the town with the intent of taking Tom from out of the county jail and lynching him. A local African-American man named Sam overheard the conversation amongst the lynch mob and reported it to the Sheriff. The Sheriff was identified as Colonel Sheriff Campbell. Sheriff Campbell, unlike the rest of those within the town, comes from a family of wealth and is highly educated. His family owned numerous slaves and had plantation style land masses before the Civil War. Sheriff Campbell goes to the county jail to protect Tom from the lynch mob that is going to approach soon. His daughter Polly begs her father not to go to the county jail since the mob may get out of control and hurt her father. The Sheriff goes anyway and brings his pistol with him. While monitoring the jail, the mob arrives and asks for the sheriff to release Tom into their custody. The Sheriff denies them entrance in and the mob becomes enraged by the Sheriff's lack of understanding. The mob threatens to break down the door of the jail to retrieve Tom. The Sheriff states that if they try to do that, he will shoot them. The mob eventually backs down and leaves the county jail. While the Sheriff was dealing with the mob, Tom takes his pistol and uses it to try to escape. He orders the Sheriff to unlock the doors within the cell and jail. After the jail is unlocked Tom states that he has but no choice to kill the Sheriff in order to escape. He exclaims that he did not kill the captain, but the court will not believe him and hang him regardless. The Sheriff is confused and questions Tom as to why he would try to kill him after he had saved him from the lynch mob. Tom then explains that he is his bastard son who was sold when he was younger to help pay for the debts that the Sheriff and his family was in. The Sheriff then remembers Tom's mother Cicely and Tom and asks why he would try to kill his own father. Tom proclaims that The Sheriff was never a father, but a man who he shares blood with. Because of the way he treated his mother and himself, Tom believes that the Sheriff never valued him as a son because of the color of his skin. He curses him for making him feel like a white man on the inside but a black man on the outside. Tom and the sheriff continue to bicker about how he is free now and the color of his skin, that Polly enters the jail cell and shoots Tom just before he is about to kill the Sheriff. The Sheriff then wraps Tom in a tourniquet and locks him back up and returns home with Polly. Later that night the Sheriff lays awake restless as he thinks about Tom. He becomes remorseful since he believes that he has failed to be a father to Tom and provide the life for him that he could have. He thought about freeing him as a young boy and raising him in the North and giving him an education. He then thinks about freeing him momentarily from the jail but remembers his duty as the sheriff. The Sheriff arrives early in the morning the next day at the county jail to find Tom dead. Tom had removed his bandage from the wound in his arm and bled out in the jail cell.

As a young boy, Nick befriends several of the neighborhood residents, including the alcoholic former Judge Sullivan, disabled newspaper vendor Wart, former prizefighter Goodbye George, lounge singer Flora, deliveryman/ taxi driver Max, and prostitute Fran. When Nellie is unfairly fired just before Christmas, the Romanos' friends all surprise her with Christmas decorations, food and gifts, and join in an impromptu party. Feeling a family connection to each other and young Nick, the group all agree to help Nellie look after the boy and protect him from falling into the life of crime prevalent in the neighborhood. Ten years later, Nick is about to graduate high school. Through diligent practice, he has become a talented classical pianist who aspires to attend the local conservatory of music, but has been unsuccessful in getting an audition. His mother Nellie is now supporting them both by working as a B-girl and (it is implied) prostitute, causing Nick to suffer abuse from his classmates. Despite promising Nellie that he will not fight and risk injuring his hands, Nick fights several gang members who insulted her, and is saved from serious injury only when George, who has just been released from jail that day, joins the fight to help him. As a result, George is sent back to prison and Nick gets a jail sentence despite Judge Sullivan's drunken attempt to defend him in court. Nick is released when Nellie's new friend Louis Ramponi pays his fine. Nellie has an affair with Ramponi even though she learns he is married and operating an illegal numbers racket. Judge Sullivan, who himself loves Nellie, learns via Fran and Flora, who has become a heroin addict, that Ramponi is also selling heroin. Ramponi soon gets Nellie secretly addicted to heroin. Sullivan decides he must do more to help Nick, and takes him to see Grant Holloway, a respectable lawyer and old friend of Sullivan. Holloway was also the public defender who unsuccessfully represented Nick's father, and now feels he owes a debt to Nick. After hearing the young man play the piano, Holloway agrees to help him get an audition for the conservatory. Nick begins dating Holloway's daughter, Barbara, and the two quickly fall in love. Nick is embarrassed when the Holloways visit him at home and see Nellie in what Nick thinks is a drunken state, but is actually heroin withdrawal. On the day of Nick's conservatory audition, he learns that Nellie has become a heroin addict due to Ramponi. With a gun takes from Wart, Nick goes after the man, but Ramponi disarms him and holds him captive, planning to dose him with heroin. Alerted by Wart and Flora, Judge Sullivan, Max and Nellie go to Ramponi's business and rescue Nick. Ramponi shoots Sullivan, who in turn kills him by breaking his neck. Sullivan tells Nick to run away before the police arrive, and dies in Nellie's arms. Nellie and her friends mourn Sullivan's death and she declares she will "take the cure" and beat her addiction; the others, recognizing what a struggle life is for all them, are supportive but skeptical.

Jessica “Jess” Webb-Thomas, an American sculptor and former drug addict, meets with her estranged daughter Chloe (from Jess’ prior marriage and sent to foster care due to the former's drug addiction) and invites her to come live with her and her second husband, a wealthy banker named Ben Thomas. Chloe declines her offer. That night, she goes out with her friend Danny to a neighborhood empty of homes except for one, where the legend says a demonic witch from Slavic folklore lives. The two knock twice on the door and leave. Upon returning home, Danny starts experiencing strange paranormal occurrences. The disturbances stop when Chloe video calls Danny. Before they can converse, Chloe hears knocks on her door and when she leaves to answer them, Danny is seen in the video being dragged by an unseen force. When the demonic spirit frightens Chloe in her foster home, she accepts Jess' offer and moves in with her and Ben. Chloe is initially hostile to her family and only plans to stay for a few nights. Strange events start to unfold, beginning when Chloe finds a human molar in her carrot & coriander soup. Jess is suffering from a nightmare about an old woman crying in her house. In her nightmare, the woman looks at Jess and says "Przepraszam" (I'm Sorry in Polish), before slitting her own throat, which scares Jess awake. Jess tells Chloe about her dream and, finding this description familiar, Chloe tells Jess about a woman they nicknamed "Ginger", a supposed witch that used to live next door. After her death by suicide, they began the urban legend that she would come and get you if you knocked twice on her door. However, Jess dismisses this as a bad dream. While sculpting, Jess's model Tira is disturbed by Chloe's presence and leaves, claiming that there is darkness around her. Chloe believes that it is the Baba Yaga haunting her, but she is ignored by Jess. While sculpting with Jess, Chloe slowly warms up to her mother. Jess returns to her workshop to see that her sculptures had moved and she believes that Chloe did it in the mere seconds that she had been out of the room to get two soft drinks. The next day, Jess returns to her workshop and discovers it in shambles with "She's mine" scrawled on the floor in what appears to be red paint. That night, the two are terrorized by the witch and they resort to burning down all the doors. The next day, a portal opens and Chloe is almost dragged inside but is saved by Jess. They meet with Tira, who says that Mary Aminov was never a witch and that she committed suicide. Because Chloe helped spread the false rumor of witchcraft, Mary's spirit wants revenge. Chloe panics and runs off, convinced by Tira's words that the disappearances were her fault and she spends the night on the street where she is found and returned to the foster home. Jess goes there to get her back and while there, she has a sudden epiphany that the true culprit of the disappearances was not Mary but Detective Boardman. As she and Chloe escape, they are surprised by the sound of two knocks coming from sidewalk basement-access double doors which then suddenly open, and Chloe is taken by the witch. After Chloe's disappearance, Jess breaks into Mary's abandoned house, injuring her foot on an old nail. Unfortunately, she is caught and sent to the police station, but not before getting to knock twice at the door herself. Jess accuses Detective Boardman of the crimes that Mary had been accused of, but gets no answers. When she is finally alone in her prison cell, she uses blood from her wounded foot to leave a message on the wall before being taken through the same portal that previously appeared. She wanders through the vast woods into a cave where she finds a cage hanging from the ceiling with Chloe in it. Jess gets her out and rushes to escape with her as Baba Yaga pursues them; meanwhile, Detective Boardman has arrived at the witch's house and proceeds to knock twice, causing the door to open on its own. He enters the home, having heard the sounds of Jess and Chloe's voices. Chloe and Jess are able to escape through the front door, but Detective Boardman is dragged inside by the witch. Jess's husband Ben returns home, worried by the disarray he finds inside and immediately begins looking for Jess but is confronted by a mysterious figure in their bedroom. Jess and Chloe arrive back at home, noticing Ben's belongings in the entrance, but cannot find him anywhere. As Jess calls Ben's phone and leaves him a voicemail, Tira is shown leaving the property covered in blood with Ben's dead body in the trunk of her car. She changes her bloody clothes and the "Slave of Baba Yaga" symbol is shown on her chest for a brief moment before disappearing. Jess informs Chloe that Detective Boardman was the culprit of the crimes, but Chloe corrects her by telling Jess that while in the other world she saw Michael, and that he was indeed taken by Mary and fed to Baba Yaga and that Detective Boardman was innocent. It's then that Jess recalls what Chloe told her about Baba Yaga and her human slave, and she realizes that Tira lied to her and tricked her into offering Detective Boardman's life to Baba Yaga in order to transfer the demon to Jess. Jess is surprised by a sudden burning sensation from her necklace and realizes that she now has the mark of Baba Yaga. The room suddenly goes dark and there are two knocks at the door. As it opens, the figure of Baba Yaga reaching toward them is the last thing seen before the film ends.

Kepler 822, a research and drilling facility operated by Tian Industries at the bottom of the Mariana Trench, is struck by a strong earthquake. As part of the facility is destroyed by the quake, mechanical engineer Norah Price and her colleagues, Rodrigo and Paul, make their way to the escape pod bay. However, the three discover that all of the escape pods have already been deployed, with Captain Lucien being the only person in the area when the three arrive. Together they reach a control base and find biologist Emily Haversham and engineer Liam Smith, who are unsuccessful in their attempts to make contact with the surface. Lucien suggests using pressurized suits to walk one mile across the ocean floor to Roebuck 641 in the hope of resurfacing from there. As they descend in a freight elevator, Rodrigo’s defective helmet implodes under the water pressure. The surviving crew see a distress beacon from one of the escape pods below, and Smith and Paul go to investigate. As they arrive at the location, they find a body in the rubble. A creature emerges from the corpse's back and attacks. Smith kills the creature and takes it inside. Haversham examines the creature and realizes that it belongs to a previously undiscovered species. The five make their way to the sea floor, but as they are walking, Kepler explodes above and nearly buries them in debris. Smith is hit, but Price and Lucien save him. They manage to get through an access tunnel to an intermediate station, where they can charge and clean their suits. However, they find that Smith's oxygen scrubber is badly damaged from the debris. On their way through the access tunnel, Paul is attacked by an unknown creature, dragged underwater and killed. Before the team leaves the access tunnel, they find that Smith's damaged oxygen pod will cause him to suffocate from the explosion's toxic fumes. Unwilling to leave another crew member behind, Price, Lucien and Haversham agree to help Smith walk. The four set off across the ocean floor, but a humanoid creature appears and drags Smith into a cave. Lucien manages to get Smith out, but is himself pulled from the other three. Price is dragged along with Lucien, but Lucien sacrifices himself to spare Price from the increasing pressure differential. Price ends up at the abandoned Shepard station alone, where she rummages through Lucien's locker to find a pentagram drawn on an old blueprint of the initial drilling site. Price is able to change her damaged diving suit before continuing toward Roebuck. Walking along the ocean floor, she reunites with Haversham and Smith, and proceeds to help drag Smith. As they enter Roebuck, they encounter a nest of the humanoid creatures hanging from the ceiling and try to sneak by, but the sound of Haversham's oxygen alarm wakes the creatures. Price is partially swallowed by one of the creatures, but is able to kill it and free herself by firing her flare gun while inside of its body. She then fires a second flare into the distance and sees the creatures are spawn to an ancient titanic creature, Cthulhu. The three manage to reach the escape pod bay, but Price discovers that only two of the pods are functional. Price and Haversham manage to get the ailing Smith into a pod, and Price persuades Haversham to take the last one. As this happens, Cthulhu emerges and attacks the Roebuck while the smaller creatures follow the two escape pods. Price, accepting her impending death, initiates an overload of the Roebuck's nuclear core, resulting in a massive explosion that engulfs her, Cthulhu, and the creatures and allows the escape pods to reach the surface. Tian Industries refuses involvement with investigations into the events and prepares to expand its drilling efforts.

One day, he overhears another taxi driver talking about a foreign client who has booked him for a trip worth 100,000 won (or roughly 565 USD); the client intends to travel to Gwangju for the day and return to Seoul before curfew. Man-seob rushes off to steal the client. The client is Jürgen "Peter" Hinzpeter, a West German journalist who wishes to report on the increasing civil unrest in Gwangju. Due to strict censorship, foreign reporters are prohibited from entering the country. Peter pretends to be a missionary in order to enter South Korea. Man-seob meets Peter and lures him into his taxi before heading off to Gwangju. The two men discover that all the roads leading to Gwangju are blocked and heavily guarded by soldiers. Man-seob tries to convince Peter that they should return to Seoul, but the latter refuses to pay the 100,000 won unless they reach Gwangju. They manage to enter the city after they lie about Peter being a businessman. In Gwangju, they find that all the shops are closed and the streets are deserted. Man-Seob dismisses the severity of the city's state as he believes that the recent riots were caused by students who only "go to school to protest" in part due to the news reporting misinformation. Peter begins to record his observations on his camera, and the two men meet a group of college students who are riding on a pickup truck.네이버영화 '택시운전사' The leader of the group, Yong-pyo, invites Peter aboard. They also befriend English-speaking student, Jae-sik. Man-seob decides to turn back, reluctant to have his taxi damaged in the riots. Along the way, he takes pity on an old woman looking for her son and she leads him to the local hospital. The woman's son turns out to be Yong-pyo, who is in the hospital with minor injuries. Peter and the college students scold Man-seob for his selfishness and refuse to let Peter pay him until he fulfills the agreed trip. Man-seob agrees to take Peter and Jae-sik (now acting as translator) through Gwangju. Local protesters welcome the foreign reporter and greet the trio with food and gifts. Peter films violent riots and witnesses soldiers beating protesters. Plainclothed Defense Security Command (DSC) officers see him filming and move to arrest him. The three men evade capture. That evening, Man-seob's taxi breaks down and they are met by Tae-soo, one of the local taxi drivers. Tae-soo tows the taxi to his shop for overnight repair. Man-seob becomes distressed as his young daughter is home alone and he is unable to contact her as Gwangju's phone lines have been cut. Tae-soo lets the men stay at his house for the night. During dinner, they hear an explosion and discover that the television station has been bombed. They head there and Peter films the turmoil. The officers recognize Peter and chase the three men; Jae-sik is captured, but before he is taken away, he yells for Peter to share the footage with the world. Man-seob is assaulted by the leader of the DSC, who accuses the driver of being a communist. Peter rescues Man-seob and the pair run back to Tae-soo's house. At dawn, Tae-soo gives Man-seob fake Gwangju license plates as the soldiers are now searching for a Seoul taxi. Alone, Man-seob drives to the nearby town of Suncheon, where he overhears reports of the events in Gwangju; the media falsely claims that the chaos was caused by "rogue groups and rioters". He is overwhelmed with guilt and drives back to the hospital in Gwangju to find Peter in shock and Tae-soo crying over Jae- sik's corpse. He reminds Peter of his promise to show the world what is happening in South Korea and encourages him to continue filming. They film a street where soldiers are mercilessly shooting at civilians. Man-seob and the other taxi drivers use their vehicles to barricade the soldiers from further harming the civilians. The soldiers continue shooting, and the two men arrive at a road blocked by soldiers. Man-seob states that he is taking a foreign businessman away from the turmoil. A young soldier searches the car and finds the license plates from Seoul. However, he remains silent on the discovery and lets them go. The soldiers then receive orders not to let any foreigners out, prompting them to chase the duo and shoot at them.

In Seoul, Man-seob happily reunites with his daughter. 23 years later, Peter receives an award in South Korea for his report on the Gwangju Uprising. In his speech, he expresses his gratitude to "Kim Sa-bok" and hopes to see him again someday. Man-seob, still a taxi driver, reads a newspaper article about Peter's speech and achievements including his words of gratitude towards him.

In the first act, attorney J. G. Utterson is visiting with friends outside a London vicarage. The vicar, Reverend Edward Leigh, relates a story about how he intervened when he saw a girl trampled by a man named Edward Hyde. Utterson is dismayed to hear the name Edward Hyde, because his friend and client Dr. Henry Jekyll recently made a new will that gives his estate to a mysterious friend named Edward Hyde. After the vicar leaves, Dr. Lanyon arrives. Utterson asks Lanyon if he knows Hyde, but he does not; he and Jekyll have become more distant recently due to scientific disagreements. Jekyll, who lives next door to the vicarage, passes by on his way to see a patient. Utterson expresses his concern about Jekyll's will, but Jekyll refuses to consider changing it. After Jekyll and Utterson leave, Lanyon speaks to the vicar's daughter, Alice Leigh, who admits to being in love with Jekyll. Alice sees that Lanyon does not approve, and she asks Jekyll about it when he returns. He says she would not understand, and begins talking about the dual presence of good and evil in men. Suddenly, Jekyll feels "the change approaching" and runs home. Before he reaches his door, he transforms into Hyde in view of the audience, but not Alice, who has gone to the other end of the stage. Hyde menaces Alice, who calls for her father. The vicar comes out of the vicarage and is clubbed with a stick by Hyde. Hyde runs away; Jekyll returns and asks who has attacked them. With his dying breath, the vicar says it was Hyde. In the second act, Inspector Newcomen shows Utterson part of the walking stick that Hyde used to kill Howell. Utterson recognizes it as one he gave to Jekyll. Newcomen vows to find the killer, and asks to interview Alice, who has been staying with Utterson since the murder. Jekyll visits Utterson with a letter from Hyde, claiming he has departed. When Jekyll leaves, Utterson's assistant, Mr. Guest, points out that the handwriting on the letter is very similar to Jekyll's. When Utterson leaves, Jekyll returns and delivers a monologue confessing that he is the murderer. After a brief conversation with Alice, Jekyll leaves. Utterson and Newcomen return, saying they play to lay a trap for Hyde. Alice insists on going with them. As they wait outside the vicarage, they see Hyde approaching Jekyll's house. He is talking to himself about his enjoyment of hurting women and children, and his hatred of Jekyll. When Utterson confronts him, Hyde rushes into Jekyll's house. When Utterson, Newcomen, and Alice pursue him, they find Jekyll instead. In the third act, Utterson and the police discuss their failure to catch Hyde. Poole, one of Jekyll's servants, says Hyde is allowed free access to Jekyll's house. Alice overhears this and is distraught to learn that Jekyll has helped her father's killer. Alice resolves to confront Jekyll about this. In the act's final scene, Lanyon waits at home with drugs from Jekyll's laboratory, retrieved on written instructions from Jekyll. Hyde arrives to retrieve the drugs. He mixes them with water and drinks the resulting potion in front of Lanyon, after which he transforms into Jekyll. The final act begins four months later. Lanyon has died of shock, and Jekyll is refusing to see Utterson or Alice. Alice is still angry that Jekyll is believed to have helped Hyde. Poole visits to say he fears Jekyll has been murdered. Someone is secluded in Jekyll's laboratory, claiming to be him and communicating mostly through written notes, but Poole thinks it is someone else. Utterson and Alice agree to accompany Poole to confront the person in Jekyll's laboratory. In the laboratory, Jekyll gives a monologue explaining that he can no longer find the ingredients for his potion, and therefore will soon revert to Hyde without the ability to transform back. Alice comes to the laboratory and sees that Jekyll appears ill. He tells her they will marry when he is better, but when she leaves he monologues that he will die soon, then he transforms into Hyde. When Utterson and Poole come to the laboratory, Hyde commits suicide by drinking poison, declaring that he has also killed Jekyll.

The story is set right after the events of "Kamp Krusty". Santa's Little Helper follows the trail of Homer and Marge's clothes, leading him to Bart's treehouse, where they were having sex. Chief Wiggum and Officer Lou arrive at the scene, having been called by Ned. Homer tells them the kids are fine, before showing them a postcard from Kamp Krusty. The scene switches to the camp, where everything is getting ruined by Bart and the other bullies. The traumatized kids return on a bus, guided by Krusty. The kids are taken to therapy and the therapist says to Marge to keep an eye on Bart. Back at home, Bart fakes PTSD and interrupts Homer and Marge's sexual activity. The next day, Bart stays at home watching TV. With Bart on their bed and being unable to have fun with Marge, Homer goes to work early and finds out what happens when the Power Plant is empty. Bart has a nightmare of the camp when they went on the canoe and asks Lisa for help. Homer gets more productive than ever and gets a raise by Mr. Burns while Bart and Lisa go to the amusement park where they cut the line thanks to the trauma they suffered from. Homer refuses to have sex with Marge and she thinks they need the help of a therapist too who suggests taking the kids back to Kamp Krusty, which was transformed into an adult retreat called Klub Krusty. Bart and Lisa find a cabin they have visited after escaping with the canoe and remember another kid with them named Charlie who fell in the rapids and never come back up. Marge and Homer have some fun at the club while Bart and Lisa report Charlie missing to the club security which reveals he's alive, and also that Charlie is not a kid but a little person. During the credits, shots of Homer Simpson clones are shown at work as a Barry White-like singer is heard singing in the background about not wanting to be intimate with the object of the song.

The story is a documentary about the rise and the fall of Bart Simpson's career on the Springfield Elementary School basketball team. It all started with a joke that got him in the longest detention in history, where he started shooting baskets in the detention room wastebasket. Bart became a starter and then a star, reveling in his abilities while also letting his success go to his head. Homer Simpson became the coach of the team, and Bart started disrespecting Homer, leading to ugly clashes between them. Fat Tony noticed this and came up with a plan to enrich both himself and Bart via Bart's unwitting point shaving practices (the mobsters would tell Bart how much they wanted the SES team to win by, and Bart didn't know this was based on a betting line that the mob would then cover and make a lot of cash from). At the City Champions Final Four, Bart won the game after Homer choked him. However, Bart found out how much money Fat Tony was making, meaning that Fat Tony wanted him to lose the finals. The town hated him for that. In the game, Milhouse (who was Fat Tony's other point shaving asset) tried to keep Bart from hitting the game-winning shot but failed. Lisa then used her journalism skills to get Fat Tony to back off his plan to murder Bart. When the mob boss was Bart's age, he was an incompetent player for the only city league team where he could play for: an all-girls' team. Homer and Marge then tell the documentary crew that Bart's heyday didn't last much longer, as the minute he moved up to a league he was overshadowed by a tall kid on the court. The status of Lisa and Milhouse is outlined (along with a cameo by Stephen Curry), and the narrator of the story reveals himself to be Nelson's dad, Eddie Muntz, who gives Nelson sleeves for his vest and stays long enough just for a picture of the family to be taken before he disappears again.

Two recently deceased frogs meet in heaven and say they are proud to have died for a noble cause: so Bart can dissect them in science class for the pursuit of knowledge. However, they are horrified and angry when Bart laughingly mutilates the body he left behind. Marge despairs over Bart's terrible report card (she says they can't even hang it on the fridge in the garage). Several Springfield parents go to parenting expert Dr. Clarity Hoffman-Roth's lecture for advice. Following her recommendation of giving kids trophies for achieving either laughably simple tasks or doing absolutely nothing, Homer opens a trophy store. However, Bart volunteers to be the store's assistant and, after his shoddy work is revealed, Homer loses his temper and rants at length about what a "pathetic loser" Bart is and always will be, unaware that a devastated Bart has heard what he said. Meanwhile, Lisa lashes out against the Trophy Culture – not least because her genuine achievements earn smaller trophies than the non-achievements of classmates like Ralph Wiggum. Bart visits Abe and finds out that Abe's father (who isn't shown but was mentioned in "The Winter of His Content" as being alive and estranged from Abe) was a widely respected expert on child abuse in his day, and passed down a rare watch to Abe, which Abe then gives to Bart. Soon, Lisa causes a different movement by getting another parenting expert, Dr. Fenton Pooltoy, to speak to Springfield's parents, who says that too much praise creates millennials - in his words, "a generation of soft, entitled narcissists who drop out of college to become DJs", and his no trophies or false praise approach is embraced by the parents of Springfield. However, Lisa's plan backfires because Marge oversimplified it as "All trophies are bad" and throws out of all of Lisa's genuinely earned awards. Meanwhile, Homer's trophy business success comes to a crashing halt, and a happy Bart flaunts Abe's watch to Homer, who always wanted the watch as a symbol of Abe's respect that he never received (he also wants to use it to finish his self- published novel), but Bart loses the watch in the forest near Springfield and badly injures Milhouse while failing to retrieve it. Abe tells Bart they're going to be profiled for a little read magazine's issue on families, and Bart can't tell Abe the truth because it would kill him. When Homer takes his trophies to a pawn shop, he finds the watch (which Milhouse did find, but being mad at Bart for dropping stones at him, he pawned it), planning to rub the recovery in Bart's face, but when he sees Bart is broken and tearful over the loss, he feels bad and gives the watch back to his son. Marge praises Homer's actions, and he says he's going with his gut - or specifically his GUT (Give Up Trying) approach. After their picture is taken for the magazine, Bart then breaks the watch by accident and Abe tries to choke him to death. The episode ends with Trophy Culture hitting its nadir at the NBA Draft where NBA Commissioner Adam Silver announces that the kid with the most trophies has been selected: Ralph Wiggum, much to Lisa's chagrin. Homer then sings Joe Esposito's "You're the Best Around" over the credits.

U.S. Secretary of State Charlotte Field learns from President Chambers, a former television actor, that he does not plan on running for a second term as he is trying to break into the movie industry. Seeing an opportunity, she convinces him to endorse her as a potential presidential candidate. Meanwhile, New York City journalist Fred Flarsky learns that the newspaper he works for has been bought by Parker Wembley, a wealthy media mogul whose ethics directly oppose Fred's. Furious, he promptly quits but cannot find another job. Depressed, he turns to his more successful best friend Lance, who takes him to a charity fundraising event where Boyz II Men happened to be playing. Coincidentally, Charlotte is also in attendance. She and Fred recognize each other, as she was his babysitter and secret crush when they were younger. While they catch up, Wembley interrupts them to plan a meeting with Charlotte, leading Fred to condemn Wembley's actions and beliefs very loudly before leaving, falling down a set of stairs and injuring himself in the process. Upon reading some of Fred's columns, Charlotte decides to hire him to write her speeches over the protests of her Chief of Staff, Maggie. Despite voicing skepticism of her ethics, Fred takes the job. At a world leaders summit, Charlotte is forced to revise a speech involving a planned environmental revision to appease some of her constituents. When Fred objects and calls her out on abandoning her morals, she changes her mind and the speech is a success. As the two continue to spend time together under the pretext of Fred learning more about Charlotte for his writing, they start to get close. Finally, after surviving a revolution in Manila, they begin a relationship together. Upon finding out, Maggie tries to warn both that the public will never accept them as a couple. When Chambers orders Charlotte to remove plans to preserve the trees, as some friends of his asked, she lets off steam with Fred by getting high on ecstasy. A hostage crisis occurs soon after and, despite still being high, Charlotte manages to talk the captors down and free the hostage. Even though the incident increases Charlotte's approval rating, Chambers is livid when she chooses to ignore his orders and call him out. He confronts her in his office alongside Wembley, who has a vested interest in removing the trees as part of his plan. The two blackmail her with a hacked video from Fred's webcam. The hacked video depicts Fred discussing his and Charlotte's relationship and Fred further masturbating to a video of one of her speeches, the hacked video culminating in Fred ejaculating on his own face. Charlotte shows Fred the hacked video and informs him that she has agreed to the ultimatum, and that she wants to introduce him and their relationship publicly once his image is cleaned up. Disappointed and unwilling to change, he refuses and they break up. Back in New York, Fred talks with Lance, who tells him that he has been too stubborn with his principles and refusal to consider other people's needs and opinions. During her announcement to run for president in 2020, Charlotte changes her mind and opts for her original plan, also revealing the blackmail from Wembley and Chambers and describing the content of the video before its release. Fred searches for Charlotte and finds her waiting at his apartment. They admit that they love each other, and meet the press outside where Charlotte introduces Fred as her boyfriend.

The Burning Glass tells the story of Christopher Terriford, a British scientist who discovers a new method of capturing solar energy. This "burning glass" can greatly benefit mankind, but it can also be used to wipe out distant targets with devastating flame, so like the atomic bomb it holds the potential to destroy mankind. Because of this, Terriford won't give his discovery to the British Government, instead depositing half the formula in a bank and the other half in his wife's memory. Terriford and the British Prime Minister debate at the intersection of morality, patriotism, conscience, and necessity. Terriford – who wishes he could forget his discovery, but can't – tells the Prime Minister that the time has come for science to withhold knowledge as "we haven't developed at the same time our spiritual or our political qualities... We are like a monstrous giant... There can be a blasphemy of applied science. We have reached that point." Then dark forces – perhaps Russian agents, but identified only as "The Enemy" – kidnap Terriford. But Terriford refuses to talk and is released. Meanwhile, his wife and associate have undertaken to recreate the burning glass in his absence. His associate, remorseful for having played an inadvertent part in provoking Terriford's kidnapping, fearful of being kidnapped next (and that he is too weak to guard the secret he now knows), and in love with Terriford's wife, commits suicide.

Adam John Pothen (pronounced "Joan") is a rich planter who has a passion for farming. One day he meets Amy, a Jewish girl who sings in a choir, and they eventually fall in love and get married. Adam's brother Alan (Unni), his wife Swetha, and his mother are settled in Scotland. Adam and Amy visit them, where Amy conceives and is forced to stay there. While Adam returns to Kerala on plantation business, Amy dies of childbirth complications. Adam is overwhelmed and leaves his newborn daughter Ila with his brother and wife, who are childless. Adam believes that the pregnancy was the cause of his wife's death and never visits her thereafter. Seven years later, a guilt-ridden Adam returns to Scotland when his mother is killed and Ila is kidnapped by unknown people. Adam starts an investigation, aided by his best friend Cyriac. After receiving information about children being kidnapped from Edinburgh, the duo learn of Satan worshipers, who sacrifice young Jewish girls or Christian missionaries to Satan on days such as Good Friday and Easter, when Satan is considered to be weak. They suspect the Satan Worshipers of kidnapping Ila as she is half-Jewish from her maternal side. Cyriac notes that Daisy, Swetha's friend, was suspiciously messaging someone the day Ila was kidnapped, and she hails from a family in Kerala which secretly worships dark forces called Karuthachan Ootu, and this might have something to do with Ila's kidnapping. Adam and Cyriac kidnap Daisy and interrogate her; she reveals being part of a satanic cult spread across the Scottish mainland. She also reveals having taken Swetha to their church where the latter prayed to have her own child and was declared pregnant after five months. The cult's high priest. Edward Williams, who is Daisy's and Swetha's professor at work too, had demanded that Swetha either has to dedicate her awaited baby to Satan, or surrender Ila for a Satanic ritual, which Swetha declined. However, the cult's real target was Ila, whose identity was given by Daisy to Edward, and who told them where to find Ila. Swetha too knew it was them who kidnapped Ila, believing that Ila will be "returned" after the ritual, and deeply apologizes to Adam. Adam and Cyriac search Edward's house for more clues, finding a photograph with 12 Satanic priests. Adam then abducts Edward and tortures him to no avail. Adam takes Edward back to his home, clears all evidence of his presence, and kills Edward by throwing him off the stairs after force-feeding him with alcohol. Adam, still on track of Ila, goes to Edward's grave after his funeral, where he finds the other priests performing rituals on the grave. Adam learns of Nathan, a Sri Lankan Tamilian Satanic priest, one of the 12 priests in the photo whom he had actually seen once with Ila but could not catch. He follows Nathan, kidnaps his daughter, and asks him to tell where Ila is. Nathan reveals that Ila is going to be sacrificed within two days in a ceremony on Good Friday, which will be attended by all the satanic priests, including himself. Adam, who had earlier arranged Cyriac for safely returning Nathan's daughter unconditionally, is taken to the ceremonial venue by Nathan, who reminds him that the new high priest, Dr. Steve, is a ruthless and brilliant man who will sense any danger. Adam is introduced to Steve as George Augustine, a satanic priest from India. As prayers for Ila's sacrifice starts, Steve blows Adam's cover but is disrupted by Nathan, who does not know that his daughter is safe, telling Steve that the daughter's life is in Adam's hands. Steve tries to contact her, but Cyriac warns Steve on the phone that Adam and Ila should better return unharmed or else he will kill Nathan's daughter. Adam falls unconscious after being hit in the head, and an angry Nathan charges towards Steve, not willing to wait anymore for the ritual to begin, but is almost killed by the other priests. Adam wakes up to save his daughter and then kills all the priests. He is stabbed by Steve, but Adam overpowers and kills him. Nathan succumbs to his injuries. Adam rescues his daughter and leaves but succumbs to his own injuries on route. The film ends at the cemetery at graves of Adam, Amy, and the mother. Cyriac asks Ila who Adam was, to which she responds that he was her father's brother. Swetha and Unni decide to tell Ila the real facts when she is old enough, and the credits begin to roll with Cyriac saying that Ila will come with better flowers when she learns the truth about her parents.

Though Sameera is initially hesitant about another marriage, the two get married before moving to Iraq. ‌They along with a group of 19 nurses of same hospital move to Iraq to join Tikrit Teaching College, which is an Iraqi Government Hospital. Moving to Iraq, they realize Iraq is no more a peaceful country as projected during interview time, with conflicts rising on daily basis. The doctors are over-strained with rise of casualties. Sameera's knowledge in Arabic helps her to communicate better with Arabic doctors and she leads the nurses' group in their new working environment and challenges. In mean time, she gets pregnant and needs to hide this from her first son, Ibrahim who is about to visit her for vacation. Surprisingly, Faizal also comes along to permanently hand over Ibrahim to Sameera due to issues in his family. Ibrahim finds it hard to accept Shaheed as his new step father and when he realizes that his mom has remarried, he runs out of their quarters only to see the city is now a major riot zone with pro-ISIS supporters uprising against Iraqi Central Government in the city. He is brought back to quarters by Sameera. Shaheed feels that Ibrahim needs some time alone with Sameera to realize the new environment. For this, he offers his assistance to Army medical team moving to Mosul to deal with the local casualties over there. He consoles Sameera that it's a matter of two weeks which is sufficient for Ibrahim to get adjusted to his new realities and the mission is not dangerous as the army is along with them. However within a day, Mosul falls into hands of ISIS and the medical team is taken into captive. News gets flashed and Sameera pleads with hospital management to help in rescuing her husband. As Iraqi forces retreat from Mosul, the Iraqi government is no longer in position to help. The Hospital manager advises Sameera to seek assistance of Indian Embassy in Baghdad. Sameera along with manager visits Embassy where she meets Indian Ambassador Manoj Abraham. They promise assistance but remind them that it's a war zone and Indian Government has its own limitations in intervening. While Sameera is in Baghdad, Tikrit falls into ISIS hands which they discover while coming back to hospital. ISIS militants kill the manager, while bringing Sameera back to hospital to join with other nurses who are now captives of ISIS. Sameera relays this matter to Indian Embassy and calls out for help, which brings the matter to serious concern of both Indian Government and Kerala Government, as all nurses were from Kerala state. In meantime at Mosul, ISIS terrorists kill the doctor for not complying with them to treat wounded terrorists. Shaheed to save his life, offers medical assistance to wounded ISIS terrorists. Sameera starts informing about the tensed situation at Tikrit through her mobile to Kerala government. The Chief Minister of Kerala along with India's Foreign Affairs Minister starts briefing with the Ambassador. As there is no direct communication or normal diplomatic relationship with ISIS, Indian government has little chances of a formal route to intervene. Indian Government sends its Foreign Secretary to Iraq, who initially thinks that Iraqi Army will help the stranded nurses out of Tikrit. However the Ambassador doesn't join on that and assumes full responsibility to rescue. Meanwhile, International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement offers their assistance and a bus is arranged to fetch all stranded nurses out of Tikrit. But, as they need to pass through extreme violent war zones of Mosul, Indian Embassy cancels permission, which results only Indian Nurses stranding in Tikrit, while other nationalities taken out. However the decision of Indian Embassy is proven right when the bus gets caught in a crossfire near Mosul, killing all nurses. With just 19 Indian nurses stranded in Tikrit, ISIS decides to use them as human shields and plan to take them to their key base Mosul. India responds by dropping food packets near hospital, but one packet contains a secret satellite phone with location detector which Sameera take over to correspond with Crisis Command center at Indian Embassy. Ambassador Manoj instructs Sameera to destroy all passports and documents that reveal their identity and asked all other nurses to declare themselves as Muslims, as ISIS terrorists might kill non Muslims among them. Sameera teaches all other nurses basic religious things like Namaz and covering the head as well as hiding all religious symbols. Meantime, Kerala Government along with its Foreign affairs agency- NORKA brings in a prominent Malayalee Businessman- Jayamohan of Crescent Group who have close links with Saudi Royal Family to persuade the Royal Family to broker with ISIS on India's behalf. Jayamohan, after hearing the nurses pleas over their satellite phone, rushes to Riyadh's Erga Palace to meet then-the Crown prince Salman of Saudi, requesting his assistance to intervene as Saudis being a major financial handler to ISIS at the time. Initially Saudi Prince refuses. After a prolonged discussion, Saudi agrees to broker on behalf of India unofficially without any record. Meanwhile, at Mosul ISIS base, Sameera and nurses are brought before a main cleric, who test them to ensure they all are Muslims. Sameera's knowledge in Arabic, her son's knowledge in Quran and the coordinated Namaaz all help them to believe that the entire nurses are of Muslims and no harm is done. With Saudi's intervention, a secret deal was drawn between India and ISIS. ISIS agrees to transfer the nurses to Erbil near the Kurdistan Check Point. Meanwhile, with Sameera's persistence, she finds out Shaheed among ISIS captives who were about to be executed and with her pleas, she is able to rescue him from there. Sameera, Shaheed, Ibrahim and nurses are brought to Kurdistan from where India take them over in their buses and a special flight is arranged to take them back to Cochin from Erbil.

When she returns home after work one night, her alcoholic mother cruelly criticizes her for being unmarried at her age. Margaret runs into her bedroom and cries herself to sleep. The next day on her way to work, Margaret joins a crowd on the beach which is staring at a flying saucer in the sky. As it descends from the atmosphere, it hovers around as if it were looking for someone and begins to follow Margaret. It communicates with her telepathically and she passes out. When she awakes, she insists that the spacecraft spoke to her, and she states that the saucer specifically wanted to give her a message. However, she doesn't reveal the message because it was a private conversation between her and the flying saucer. Government authorities capture and examine the saucer but find it empty, and they are unable to identify the composition of its hull. Soon, Margaret's mother throws her out of the house so she goes to stay at a hotel and, later, when Margaret takes a stroll on the crowded boardwalk, she is approached by a woman who thinks that Jesus spoke to her through the saucer. She believes that Margaret has the power to heal but Margaret flees in tears. At her hotel room, she writes a few notes and bottles them to throw in the ocean. The next day, a handsome patron at the restaurant asks her out on a date. Excited, Margaret buys a new outfit for the evening and the date is initially enjoyable for her until he questions her about the saucer's message. Margaret realizes that her date is not interested in her as a person, but only wants to know about the saucer. She immediately ends the date and goes home to cry herself to sleep. Desperate and without hope, Margaret walks along the beach late at night and decides to commit suicide. She walks into the ocean but a man comes from behind and pulls her out. He explains that he found one of her bottles and was touched by the message. She tells him that it was the only thing she could call her own and the only thing she could do for another like herself. The man says that when he read it, he knew it was connected to the saucer and the words were like a song. Margaret explains that the saucer was just an interstellar message in a bottle—just like the bottles she threw into the ocean. Her messages were her own words—an imperfect translation of the saucer's message. She shows the man the actual message which takes the form of a glowing orb in the palm of her hand. They caress the orb together and then it slowly disappears. Margaret and the man walk away together with his arm around her.

Both are popular tubers and people like them for what they post. However, Balthazar is submissive and socially awkward and is jealous of this couple. The movie begins when Marc and Ty are found dead and a team of investigators take Balthazar into custody for interrogation. He seems scared and confused to the psychologist but deceptive to Detective Dalton from the beginning. One of the reasons Dalton is suspecting Balthazar to be the chief suspect because of his obsession with making videos. She has a teenage daughter who makes fitness videos in bikini to become popular and Dalton is upset by that. So probably she is taking out her anger at Bal when she suspects him without any evidence. But Balthazar too lies on several occasions and changes his version of the whole incident when he is scared. At these times, psychologist comes to his rescue. The film revolves around finding proof from a prime piece of evidence in the form of a memory card which has true version of what happened that night, filmed by Balthazar. The detectives have to see how much Balthazar is speaking the truth and whether there is something more to the story. To the viewer's surprise, the film takes a horrifying turn when the truth is finally revealed from the memory card video. Most of these teenagers in the film are shown disturbed, lack family connection and are lonely. They take decisions which are misinformed and risky. They don't understand the consequences of their behaviors and interests. While leaving police custody, when the psychologist Emerson suggests Balthazar to stop making videos and go for participatory activities in the real social world, Balthazar seems totally ignorant of the message in his words and tells him that now he is going to make the video that deserves 1 million views. Psychologist supported Balthazar throughout the film with a hope of giving him warmth and understand his condition, but all went to waste as Bal was so occupied with his upcoming popularity. Bal seems to have no awareness of what harm this video craze has done to him and brought his friends in a trouble. This scenario can be found in everyday life too where parents and mental health experts struggle to make kids understand the consequences of their risky actions and unfortunately the hormonal rush of adolescence makes this difficult to achieve. The movie shows very closely the delicate make-up of the teenage mind and how things can go wrong if parents don't pay much attention and do not connect with them emotionally.

The novel opens with an English couple, Guy and Harriet Pringle, travelling through Yugoslavia towards Romania on a train. They have just married, after a whirlwind romance over the summer vacation. They are travelling to Bucharest, where Guy has a job (paid for by the British Council) at the English department of the University. On the train they first encounter Prince Yakimov, a once-wealthy English-educated White Russian emigre who is now nearly penniless and forced to live by scrounging. Once in Bucharest they set up a temporary home in the Atheni hotel where all the British journalists congregate in what is known as the English bar. They witness the arrival of the last remnants of the defeated Polish army, vanquished in the German invasion of Poland. In a piece of luck, Yakimov is hired as an assistant to work for a veteran journalist, Mcann, who has been wounded in the retreat and is desperate to get his story out. This enables Yakimov to live in the hotel in great style, where he befriends the Pringles. Guy shows Harriet the sights of Bucharest, especially the cafes and the Cismigiu Park. She meets Sophie – a half-Jewish student of Guy, seeking the security of a passport – whom Harriet senses is a rival for Guy's affections. Harriet meets Professor Inchcape and two other members of the University English department, Clarence Lawson and diplomat Foxy Leverat. She also meets some junior members of the British diplomatic legation. All seem relatively unconcerned by the war and the threat it poses. They are entertained by the Druckers, a family of Jewish bankers who enjoy extreme wealth, and whose eldest son Sacha is a student of Guy. The Pringles rent an underheated two-bedroom apartment in a block overlooking the Cotroceni Royal Palace just as winter begins. Yakimov's credit runs out and he is forced to rent a room in an unfashionable bug-ridden suburban apartment. The head of the Drucker family is arrested on trumped-up charges, and the rest of his family flee. Harriet is shocked as she witnesses the extreme poverty that exists alongside the wealthy affluence of the capital. The suffering endured by the poor during the very severe Romanian winter is described. The novel follows the course of the historical events of 1939 and 1940 and how these successively affect the English community in Bucharest and Romanian society. These are: * The fall of Poland * The assassination of the prime minister Armand Călinescu by the Iron Guard, the Romanian fascist movement * The Russo–Finnish war * The invasion of Denmark and Norway by Germany * The invasion of the Low Countries by Germany * The coup that replaces prime minister Gheorghe Argeșanu with Constantin Argetoianu. * The fall of France and the Dunkirk evacuation of British troops. * The entry of Italy into the war on the side of Germany. News of these events reaches the main characters by rumour, newspaper, German propaganda and via BBC radio. Harriet's friendship with Clarence deepens as Guy becomes absorbed in his university work. Guy's close friend David Boyd arrives from the Middle East. The final chapters describe the production of the Shakespeare play Troilus and Cressida by the University's English department in the spring of 1940. It is directed by Guy, who becomes completely focussed on the work, ignoring the threatening nature of the war as it unfolds around him. Yakimov surprises everyone, including himself, with a great acting ability which restores his self- respect. The performance is considered a triumph, but many Romanians wonder at the British ability to stage a cultural event like this during a time in which their country appears to be going to defeat in war. The play can be seen as an allegory for political events, with the beleaguered city of Troy as Britain and the invading Athenians led by the militaristic Achilles as the fascists. The book's title, The Great Fortune, is taken from its final pages and refers to the potential unrealised economic wealth of Greater Romania.

The leadership of KLOOP is very concerned with the current situation. Head of KLOOP Cain Dobroglasov using the "Time Machine" – another invention of the restless Babsky – prepares to travel into the future when he comes to the conclusion that in the present time he is to be removed from his post. But Filyurin's invisibility suddenly disappears, and life in the city of Pischeslav begins to flow in a quiet bureaucratic line once again...

The film opens as a Buddhist monk (previously Wimal) is travelling from an outrigger to a temple. The person in charge of duties in the temple (Alfred) enters the shrine room of the temple to find a young lady (Wimal's daughter Hasanthi) waiting there. After a short conversation with Alfred, Hasanthi (Hashini) meets the monk and tells him that she had come all the way from Canada to know about Mr. Wimal Wickramasinghe. As he is now a monk, she refuses to ask her questions from him because even though she was born in Canada, she was brought up as a Sinhala Buddhist girl. She gives the monk a notebook in which her questions were written. She requests the monk to read a letter from her mother Kumari (Semini). As the monk reads it, the letter evokes his memories of past. Kumari is a Sinhala Buddhist lady who is married to a foreign man Richard Bertholamuz. She finds that Richard does not dedicate time to show her love and affection. One day she saw Wimal in a meeting in the temple which was shown in the beginning of the film. The chief monk introduces Wimal to the gathering. Her ever loving friend Kanthi (Jayani) reminds Kumari about the days she and friends were fond of Wimal as he was a beloved actor who acted as the lion in the school drama. Later, Wimal comes to Kumari's house to collect a letter regarding the foreign tour of the chief monk. She gets fond of him and frequently talks with him. Eventually she reveals her situation to Wimal. Meanwhile, she shares all this with her friend Kanthi who also talks with Wimal. Later, she visits Wimal's place in Bolgoda and appears to be happier than ever. She gets closer and closer to Wimal that she even slept with him. Wimal gives Kumari the wedding ring which his father gave his mother. Little by little, Richard realizes that Kumari has a connection with Wimal. One day Wimal, Kumari and Kanthi meets together for dinner and Kanthi surprises Kumari by giving her a birthday cake. Wimal also gives her a saree and after that they arrive at Wimal's house. Wimal gives Kumari a birthday cake. At this moment, Kumari reveals Wimal that she is pregnant and Wimal is going to become a father. Wimal is startled as he hears this and his reaction upsets Kumari. Richard tries to convince Kumari that he cares for her and he will try to become a good husband to her. He tells Kumari that she must be cautious as it is only two months since she has got pregnant. Kumari understands that Richard has started to behave in responsible manner. Wimal pleads to Richard to tell Kumari to visit him again. However, when he talked with her, she refused to live with him, saying she has noticed that Richard had understood her and she will continue to live with Richard as he had agreed to accept and bring up Wimal and Kumari's child as his own. Hasanthi gives a letter which was written by Richard on the day of her coming of age. Richard had died of a heart attack when she was 17 years old. Richard has requested the letter to be given to Hasanthi when she is 21 years old. In the letter Richard tells that he wrote it in case something bad happens to his life. He reveals that Mr. Wimal is her biological father. Hashini becomes emotional and asks the monk why he neglected even the news about her birth. The monk (previously Wimal) says that he had asked Richard those days to tell him when her daughter is born, but Richard had lied to him that his daughter had died at the moment she was born. Hasanthi leaves the notebook and the ring Wimal gave her mother with the monk. The story ends as the monk throws those items into the water when he travels across the river by the outrigger to the monastery to continue his meditation. The fifth stanza (gatha) in Karaneeya meththa suttra is reminded at the end of the film.

During Ghost Month in Binondo, Mayen Lim (Kim Chiu) was the independent middle daughter of a cash-strapped family who struggled to sustain their financial difficulties. The family, who are Chinese opera playwrights at the local temple, is composed of her parents Manuel (Robert Seña) and Dolores (Ina Raymundo), her cousin Matt (Jerome Ponce), and her aunts; Jana (Kakai Bautista) and the schizophrenic Akoh (Beverly Salviejo). She is dating Clinton Yu (Matteo Guidicelli), an architect from a controlling middle-class family who will migrate in Cebu to attend a wedding of his brother's co-worker. That night, Mayen meets the inscrutable Angie Lao (Alice Dixson), a Cantonese matchmaker who offers her an opportunity in participating the ghost marriage, an old Chinese ritual promulgated by upper-class families where they exchange the vows of their recently deceased bachelor with their selected spouse, to become the wife of the late Xu Jian Rong from a wealthy Chinese family in exchange for her family's debts. The day after she initially decline the request, Manuel's employer and debtor Robert Ong (Mon Confiado) threatened to sue the family in request for his marriage to Mayen. As a result, the latter accepted Lao's offer of performing the ritual to acquire the money. In inclusion, Mayen receives a bracelet for the bride as the bachelor’s family heirloom and down payment of her emigration to Xinjiang for the marriage. The next night, Mayen was assaulted by Robert who later escapes after encountering malevolent presence of five yaogui ghosts, including Xu Jian Rong's, surrounding her house. The spirits followed him at his house where he is killed by the groom's yaogui who rips out his heart. The following night during his funeral, Mayen berates Clinton for cheating on her in his recent engagement with another in a committed relationship arranged by his parents after her brother Victor (Victor Silayan) informed the truth to her from the previous day. During their confrontation, the ghost possessing Clinton kills him. Realizing the capability of the ritual that bounded Robert and Clinton's deaths, Mayen takes off the bracelet but the ghosts soon attack regardless as Akoh was lured out of the bedroom and killed before her niece could escape the house with her. Mayen confronts Lao, intending to break the ordeal and the latter reveals she attempted to convince her parents earlier before her after Manuel turns her down at their initial meeting. Mayen seek help from the temple's abbot Lee (Nanding Josef) and the female Buddhist monk mystics led by Suan Ming (Isay Alvarez). The monks used a blessed singing bowl to the bracelet and avert the ghosts' attacks when the bowl sounds. Suan Ming reveals that Xu Jian Rong's yaogui was a soul collector from the fourth realm of Diyu ruled by Wuguan Wang and he was protected by the other four female ghosts who were his concubines in prevention from disrupting the ritual. After arriving home, Mayen was contacted by her childhood friend and programmer David Chao (Christian Bables) who reveals that his group was hired by Lao three years ago to select six women, including Mayen who was currently selected born under the Water Rooster year, in partaking the ghost marriage that resulted to the apparent deaths of the other five participants before her. He also provided a ceremonial exorcism with the monks to end the deal with the spirit which will held on the day of her wedding. The day before their departure to China for the ritual, Lao discovered that Mayen didn't attend at the airport and confronts her family at the house as Manuel reveals that his daughter had left one day ago to David at Nepal to end the ghost marriage. Mayen and David arrive at the Buddhist temple in Kathmandu to commence the exorcism. During the ritual, Mayen destroys the bracelet as her soul was sent to the netherworld after Xu Jian Rong abduct Manuel at the house while performing a ritual opera for the exorcism with his family, Lee and the monks. Mayen awakens at the "Lake of Fire and Blood" where all the tormented souls, including Clinton and Robert whom she encounterd earlier, settled while searching her father. After finding him who apologizes to his daughter, they are attacked by Xu Jian Rong's concubines but Mayen and Manuel manage to defeat them. Meanwhile, the ghost kills Lao after failing to offer Mayen to him. Her soul arrives at the realm and tried to kill Mayen but is stopped by Akoh's spirit, allowing Mayen and her father to escape the realm through the gateway where they awaken from their respective slumbers. Mayen then burns Xu Jian Rong's portrait to destroy his spirit and complete the exorcism while Manuel and his wife watch their opera peacefully. In the post-title scene, Xu Jian Rong's yaogui manages to reincarnate in Lao's body, vowing to get Mayen.

The film is presented in the style of a mockumentary documenting the history of The Small Potatoes, a band of anthropomorphic singing potatoes. Narrative segments are interspersed with talking head interviews with the band's friends, manager Lester Koop (McDowell), and man on the street interviews with the band's fans (all of whom are potatoes). The Small Potatoes’ trajectory roughly follows trends in American popular music through the second half of the 20th century: The Potatoes start as a country and western band in Idaho in the 1940s, before finding popularity first as rock and roll and then doo wop singers in the 1950s. They reach the peak of their popularity in the 1960s as a British invasion style act, followed by their experimenting with psychedelic rock after a trip to India. Through the Potatoes’ career, there is constant infighting between lead singer, Ruby, and Nate, the songwriter, on what the band's image should be. Olaf, a fat potato, struggles with his weight, which Lester tries to help him keep under control, while Chip is the quiet, detached voice of reason. Conflict worsens between Nate and Ruby in the 1970s. Ruby, as the frontwoman of the group, begins to style herself as a diva and attempts to reform the band's image around herself, turning the group into a disco act. Nate, meanwhile, wants to keep the band socially relevant as a punk rock group. Tensions come to a head in the 1980s during the age of commercialization, when Ruby convinces the group to sell out by lending their names to a line of children's toys. The toys are all poorly manufactured and fall apart, displeasing customers. The negative backlash causes the group to break up. Most of the members go on to get regular jobs while Ruby reinvents herself as a Britney Spears style solo pop act in the 1990s. The group's old albums remain popular, though, and Ruby becomes depressed at the loss of her friends. The group enjoys a resurgence in popularity on the internet in the 2000s, leading to Simon, Olaf, and Nate reuniting for a reunion tour. Ruby surprises everyone by showing up at the theater on the night of their opening concert and singing with the band. The group finally resolves all of their old hostilities and Lester arranges for them to make a comeback tour.

A flock of robins is teaching their young ones to fly. The sun is shining and all the birds are cheerfully singing. Meanwhile, a boy having much fun with an air rifle is shooting at everything in the house, destroying many of the items in the house; he then goes out into the garden and shoots at a nest (which the birds barely save), then shoots a chick out of the sky—only to realize shortly thereafter the gravity of what he has done. The chick's parents try to revive it, but to no avail. The sky turns dark and stormy as the birds assemble and wail in mourning for the chick's funeral, complete with pallbearers and a grave digger. The boy is tormented by the birds' wailing; watching from the window, he too is brought to tears and gets on his knees to pray. As the birds prepare to lower the chick into its grave, it begins raining. The young chick miraculously comes back to life, the birds resume their cheerful singing, the sky clears, and the boy, having learned his lesson, breaks his gun into pieces and pulls out a box of bird seed for all the birds to enjoy. The chick and the boy share a seed as the film ends.
